Easter Eggs (Peanut Butter & Coconut)

2 lbs. powdered sugar
2 sticks margarine
evaporated milk
1c. creamy peanut butter or 1&1/2c. coconut
1-2c. chocolate chips

In a mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar and margarine.  Add some evaporated milk--enough to moisten the sugar and margarine and make the dough workable.  Stir in the peanut butter or coconut.  If more moistening is needed, add more evaporated milk.  Form dough into egg shapes (any size) and place them on a cookie sheet or large plate.  For best results,  chill the eggs in the refrigerator or freezer until they are pretty hard (your hands don't get messy when you handle the eggs).  Then melt chocolate chips in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl.  Dip the eggs  in the chocolate and chill the eggs again until chocolate is hardened.
